58: Chapter 58 The Son is Found 58: Chapter 58 The Son is Found That day.
Su He left Moon Gift Villa early in the morning.
Just as Jiang Yan ca downstairs, she had just left.
He turned to the housekeeper and asked, “Uncle Zhong, did she leave without having breakfast?”
Uncle Zhong nodded, “Yes, Master.
The Young Madam also said she won’t be coming back for dinner tonight.”
“…” Jiang Yan’s brows furrowed slightly.
Then Uncle Zhong added, “Oh, and the Young Madam ntioned she might not return tonight and told us not to keep the door open for her.”
Now, the man’s brows were even more deeply furrowed and tense.
Ever since that night, they really hadn’t spoken a word to each other.
He thought she would co looking for him to make a scene, but she didn’t; she was quiet as if nothing had happened.
On the other hand, Su He returned to the Pear Garden Pavilion.
An hour later, she left with Su Yimo, Su Heng, and Lan Yan.
They returned to the Capital City.
However, she didn’t go back to the Su Family’s ho but headed to the cetery instead.
July 23rd was her birthday, the day of her mother’s ordeal, and also the anniversary of her mother’s death.
Since her mother’s passing, she had never celebrated her birthday.
Every year on this day, she would spend a day alone at Su Wanqiu’s grave.
During the four years overseas, she would also secretly co back.
But this ti, she decided to bring her son.
She thought her mother would be very happy to see her grandson.
Su He placed a bouquet of her mother’s favorite bellflowers in front of Su Wanqiu’s tombstone.
The language of bellflowers: eternal love, regretless, love without hope.
To Su He, the most unfortunate thing in Su Wanqiu’s life was loving the wrong person, giving her heart to the wrong cause.
“Mom, I ca to see you, I’m still doing well, you don’t have to worry about .” She said with a smile looking at her mother’s photo, “Also, great-grandpa and great-great-grandma are doing well, so are the Old Mr.
and Mrs.
Su, they’re in good health too.”
Su He, “Today, I didn’t co alone; I brought your grandson to see you.
He was too little before, so I didn’t bring him over.”
She looked down at her son standing in front of her and rubbed his head, “Xixi, call out to Grandma.”
“Grandma~”
Su Yimo’s childish voice called out to Su Wanqiu’s tombstone.
Then he obediently said, “Grandma, don’t worry, baby will take good care of mommy, love mommy.
Baby will make mommy the happiest mommy in the world, not let anyone bully her.”
Hearing her son’s words, Su He’s heart ward.
Although he often said these words, it ward her every single ti.
“Alright, you go wait in the car with your little uncle and your Yan sister.
Mommy will stay with grandma a bit longer.”
“Okay, mommy.”
The three of them left, giving Su He so private space with Su Wanqiu.
She squatted down and gently caressed Su Wanqiu’s na and picture on the tombstone.
“Mom, actually I have a lot to tell you today, but I don’t know where to start…”
Su He stayed there alone for half an hour.
And during that half hour, she didn’t realize what was happening below.
Lan Yan was waiting downstairs with Su Yimo and Su Heng for Su He, but just a few minutes after waiting, several cars drove in.
The license plates were from the Capital City.
The first to snap to attention was Su Heng, “Damn it!
It’s our family’s cars!”
But even if they wanted to hide, it was too late.
Because the cars had already driven in, and Su Tiancheng had already seen him.
In the car, Su Tiancheng squinted his eyes looking at Su Heng standing outside.
“Isn’t this brat supposed to be in Yue City?
When did he run back here?
And to this place of all places.”
Su Zhimian was also in the car, and he was surprised as well.
But the next second, he guessed they probably ca together with Su He.
The car ca to a stop.
Su Tiancheng and Su Zhimian were the first to get out of the car, both father and son dressed in black suits.
“Su Heng, why are you here by yourself?”
Su Tiancheng moved forward with an air of command.
He glanced at the woman standing behind Su Heng and frowned.
Lan Yan shielded Su Yimo behind her.
Su Zhimian had already spotted Su Yimo.
He hadn’t expected Su He to bring him along, and now he really felt helpless.
The elders were still in the car behind them and would likely co down soon.
“Dad, I ca with my sister to visit my aunt.” Upon seeing Su Tiancheng, Su Heng was as ek as a mouse before a cat.
In the Su Family, apart from fearing Su He, his next fear was his father, known for being stern and impartial.
As soon as Su Tiancheng heard he was with Su He, his expression softened slightly.
“Where is your sister then?” He looked around but didn’t see Su He anywhere.
Su Heng, “She’s still up there chatting with our aunt.”
At this mont, Su Tiancheng spotted the child behind Lan Yan.
Su Yimo was not wearing a hat or a mask; half of his face was exposed.
Su Tiancheng, who frequents the business world and has developed a keen eye from eting all kinds of people, said, “This child, why does he look so familiar?”
He took a step forward, wanting a clearer look.
Su Heng instinctively blocked him, “Dad, are you seeing things?”
“What, you won’t let look?” Su Tiancheng gave him a stern glance and surprisingly said, “You little rascal, don’t tell you’ve secretly made a grandson for ?”
“…”
Su Heng rolled his eyes; his dad’s imagination was truly boundless!
“…Dad, don’t slander with such wild talk, how can you even say that?
I’m only eighteen.
Even my brother hasn’t married and had children yet, where would I get a grandson for you?”
Su Zhimian, unexpectedly brought into the conversation: “…”
Just then, an old and steady voice suddenly cut in: “What are you two muttering about?”
Old Mr.
Su and Grandma Su were both dressed plainly, looking hale and hearty, with firm steps.
“Grandpa, Grandma.” Su Heng called out to the elders.
“Hmm.” Old Mr.
Shen’s gaze was sharp, and he said sternly, “Do you have a girlfriend outside?”
Su Heng: “…”
These two were a like, father and son indeed.
“Grandpa, don’t listen to my dad’s nonsense, this child is my…
sister’s friend’s child,” he found an excuse on the spot.
Su Zhimian, the only one in the know: “…”
“Grandpa, Grandma, let’s go up and see our aunt first.”
Su Zhimian interjected at this mont.
He could only do his best to get the elders and the old man to leave first.
However, before they had the chance to leave, they heard a cry—
“Waah…
there’s a bug, there’s a bug…
Yan, there’s a bug…”
Young Su Yimo was unafraid of heaven or earth, except when Su He was angry, and the other thing he feared was furry, wriggling bugs.
Unable to control himself, he let out several cries of alarm.
He sprang out from behind Lan Yan like a spring, landing right next to Su Zhimian, and instinctively cried out: “Uncle, baby is scared of the caterpillar～”
He wrapped his arms around Su Zhimian’s legs, buried his little head, and sat down on the ground in fear.
Everyone: “…”
The three who knew the truth felt like facepalming: “…”
“Wait, Zhimian, what did that child call you?” Su Tiancheng, looking at his eldest son, frowned deeply, perplexed.
Old Madam He Jinyi’s sharp eyes clearly made out Su Yimo’s face.
She took a few steps forward, looking towards Su Yimo with an uncertain gaze, and gently said: “Little friend, could you lift your head up for Grandma to see?
Can you do that?”
Su Yimo then realized he had caused trouble.
What are we supposed to do?
“I don’t want, baby is scared~” He could only pretend to be still afraid and stubbornly refused to raise his head.
“There, there, the bug has already gone away, it’s all right now,” the Old Madam cooed softly.
Su Zhimian sighed deeply inside, “Grandma, let do it.”
After he said that, he picked up Su Yimo.
Su Yimo imdiately buried his face in his shoulder and neck.
Old Mr.
Su and Su Tiancheng, father and son, could tell at a glance that Su Zhimian was hiding sothing from them.
His action of holding the child was too practiced.
“Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, actually…” he looked at the three elders: “This child, he…”
He knew that he couldn’t hide it today, the more he shrouded it in secrecy, the more doubts would arise.
He patted Su Yimo’s back and said gently, “Xixi, lift up your head now.”
Su Heng and Lan Yan by the side dared not say anything.
Su Yimo, after hearing his uncle’s words, hesitated for a mont and slowly raised his head to look at everyone, his large round eyes and chubby little face quite adorable.
Old Mr.
Su was the first to be shocked.
With one glance, he saw soone in Su Yimo’s small face.
It was exactly alike, this was a miniature version of Jiang Yan.
Old Madam Su also realized, and Su Tiancheng, who had been in business all year round, naturally recognized his nephew-in-law.
This face was just…
“This…” the Old Madam said, slightly surprised, covering her mouth.
The astute old man furrowed his brows and said solemnly, “First go and pay tribute to your aunt; we’ll discuss this matter back ho.”
Su He ca down just in ti to et them.
“Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle.”
She was very surprised; she deliberately chose to co in the morning to avoid them.
But now…
She exchanged a glance with Su Zhimian, it’s done…
The Old Man looked at her, his face gentle and kind yet with a sense of authority: “Susu, after I pay tribute to your mother, I have sothing to talk to you about.”
He ant for her to not wander off and to obediently wait for him.
He understood his granddaughter’s character to so extent; after all, he had brought her up himself.
Su He nodded, “I understand, Grandpa.”
–
An hour and a half later.
At the Su Family villa.
In the main hall.
The two elders sat in the main seats.
Except for the Housekeeper, all other servants were dismissed.
Su He stood before the two elders, with Su Yimo on her right side.
Old Mr.
Su looked at the mother and son with a rather serious tone: “Why did you hide this matter from both families?”
The Old Man got straight to the point.
Su He was brought up by him; if she hid it from the Su Family, she most certainly would hide it from the Jiang Family too.
Su He pursed her lips, then had Su Heng take Su Yimo out to play for a while.
Su Yimo obediently went out with Su Heng for the ti being.
Even though he knew everything, Su He still didn’t want to say it again in front of him.
“Grandpa, Grandma, it was my choice to decide to have Xixi on my own, and hiding it from you was because I was planning to divorce Jiang Yan.
I was planning to tell you two elders when the ti was right.”
The entire hall suddenly went quiet.
Before the Old Man could ask anything else, the Old Madam, both distressed and angry, spoke first.
“You child, having a baby is such a big deal, and you didn’t even tell us.”
As a fellow woman, the Old Madam knew full well the tribulations of childbirth for a woman.
Moreover, she had given birth alone in a foreign land.
And had kept it hidden for so many years.
“What are you thinking, if sothing were to happen to you, how could your grandma ever face your mother?”
Su He pursed her lips, fully aware that she was in the wrong.
“Grandpa, Grandma, I’m sorry.”
Old Madam stood up and went over to her, holding her hand, “You, it’s been four years since you’ve been away, and you gave us such a big surprise.
Look how thin you’ve beco.
You will stay at ho these next few days, and I’ll have Mrs.
Zhuo prepare so nourishing food for you.”
Su He, “Okay, thank you, Grandma.”
The Old Madam seed to have accepted the situation, but Old Mr.
Su was still not on board.
“Susu, co with to the study!” Old Mr.
Su said grimly.
Having said that, he got up and left first.
In the study.
With a heavy expression, Old Mr.
Su looked at her, “Why do you want a divorce?
I originally didn’t agree to this marriage, it was you who said you liked that boy Jiang Yan, which is why I eventually gave in to Jiang.”
Su He: “…”
It was indeed her who had said that, back then she could not find an excuse and had to make one up.
Now she certainly couldn’t admit she lied back then and had made a deal with Jiang Yan.
Her grandpa would definitely go after Jiang Yan.
Su He, “Because I don’t have feelings for him anymore.”
She said so firmly and sincerely, not seeming to be lying at all.
“Okay then, how are you going to explain the matter of the child?” Su Yiguo asked her: “You said you don’t have feelings for him now, that ans you had feelings for each other four years ago, so why did you hide the child’s existence from him?”
Su He pondered for a mont, speaking emotionally, “Grandpa, when I was pregnant with Xixi, I happened to have a fever and cold, took fever and cold dicine, and even got an IV.
At that ti, I didn’t know about Xixi yet.
I was afraid there would be sothing wrong with the baby, so I wanted to hide it and give birth, planning to talk about it later.
But when it was ti to say sothing, I realized, Jiang Yan and I were not suited for each other, I felt we couldn’t make it to the end, and he felt the sa, so I selfishly concealed the existence of the child…”
“Enough, no need to say more.” Old Mr.
Su raised his hand to interrupt her: “Are you afraid that after your divorce, he would fight you for the child?”
Su He blinked and nodded, “Yes.”
Unexpectedly, grandpa could still get what she wanted to say.
It seems her made-up story was not too bad.
Because she couldn’t say it was because Jiang Yan didn’t want the child.
After all, they had been husband and wife, it was better to leave him so dignity.
…
Soon, Su Yimo beca the little darling of the Su Family.
With his cute looks and sweet mouth, he knew exactly how to win over everyone in the Su Family.
The old couple was overjoyed to have a great-grandson, although they hadn’t been involved in the earlier years, they still had ti.
Initially, Old Mr.
and Mrs.
Su had never thought they would get to hold a great-grandchild.
The oldest grandson was a career maniac nearing thirty without even a girlfriend in sight.
The rest were still little, only just turned eighteen, with no idea when it would be their turn.
After lunch.
“Great-grandma, great-grandpa, Xixi will perform so magic for you.”
The old couple watched his little earnestness, looking like a little adult, and found it extrely adorable.
Su He and Su Zhimian watched from the side, as he made the old couple grin from ear to ear with his antics.
“This kid knows how to please people,” Su Zhimian exclaid: “In all these years, I’ve never seen the old couple so happy.”
Ever since their little aunt died, the old couple had never been this happy again.
–
In Yue City.
On the top floor of DK Corporation.
“Boss, the Young Madam has returned to the Su Family,” said Jiang Feng nervously.
Ever since Master arrived at the company, he had been in a foul mood, his face even darker than usual.
And to co to the office to work overti on the weekends…
his heart was heavy, but he dared not speak.
After a mont, a low and chilly voice of the man ca through, “Who else was with her?”
“A man and a woman, and a child.
Our people didn’t dare to get too close, so they couldn’t see the faces clearly.
Afterwards on the road, the Young Madam seed to have noticed soone was following her, so our people were shaken off by her.
It wasn’t until just now that we found out that the Young Madam has returned to the Su Family.”
Jiang Feng answered honestly.
The man’s Adam’s apple bobbed a few tis, “Prepare yourself, we’re going to the Su Family.”
